Downey, Jr. Marries


Robert Downey, Jr., married his longtime girlfriend Susan Levin on Saturday.

The wedding began at 6:30 p.m. in the Long Island, New York, town of Amagansett. The ceremony took place under a gazebo built for the occasion, with guests sitting on white benches.

Guests included Keanu Reeves, who arrived by motorcycle, Billy Joel, Sting and actress Ellen Barkin. The reception followed at the same location, with tables decorated in red and gold and topped with exotic greenery instead of flowers.

Earlier Saturday afternoon, Downey did a 30-minute Kung Fu session, then went for a swim with his son, Indio. "He really blew off a lot of steam," says a friend. At lunch, Downey didnÂ’t eat much. "He just drank a lot of water," adds the friend. "He was too nervous."

The rehearsal dinner Friday night was held at the East Hampton Point Restaurant, hosted by LevinÂ’s parents. Guests included Sarah Jessica Parker and Robert Downey, Sr.

Downey, 40, and Levin, 31, met in 2002 on the set of Gothika, the psychological thriller he made with Halle Barry, which Levin coproduced. The couple were engaged in November 2003 when Downey presented Levin with an engagement ring made of diamonds and a rare African sapphire.

1 Grr. Why do entertainment magazines insist on a labeling a 2-3 year relationship longtime? girlfriend is sufficient. girfriend of 2 years, etc. Sorry for the rant, this just annoys me.

2 That annoys me too especially since he was newly engaged to ANOTHER woman just before this one.
